How much does a Clutch Replacement cost?

What is a Clutch?

The clutch is a device in your car that connects the engine to its gearbox (and, thus, to the wheels.) It is engaged or disengaged to allow you to change gear. Every car needs a clutch because the engine spins all the time, but wheels do not. The clutch gives the ability to disconnect the engine from the gearbox and wheels. As a clutch pad is designed to wear over time, it has a shorter lifespan than other car parts. With sensible driving and good car maintenance, a clutch pad should last for just over seven years. Below, you will find out the most important points about clutch change.

Signs that your Clutch needs Replacing or Repairing

Clutch Chatter

Chattering occurs when the clutch is being used and a grabbing or jerking can be felt in the vehicle.

Clutch Noise

If you are hearing strange noises like growls or squeals, this can be another sign of a problem with a clutch, as vibrations within the part would cause such sounds.

If you hear any strange noises coming from your car, have it looked at immediately as a fault with your clutch could cause serious danger while you are driving.

Burning Smell

If you can smell something burning while you drive it is essential that you stop the car and ensure you are safe.

We were impressed with the service and at a reasonable cost. They took the car away and bought back the following day which was much easier than waiting around at a garage. I could notice the improvement in my car and being able to do a test drive when returned helped me to be sure the job had been done well. Very friendly too!
